That's almost always been the case though.

Look at the American Revolution. In the early years the Rebels got wrecked pretty much every time they met the Redcoats on the field on their own terms. While conversely guerrilla fighters using Indian tactics had much better success. It wasn't until late in the Revolution that the Americans became a good enough military to actually challenge the British on the field and match if not beat them.

Unless the Libyan rebels can acquire the same skills, organization, and weapons that Gaddafi's men have, then it won't wind up like the Americans' uprising. The Libyan rebels would likely be crushed within months, not years, without the Coalition.

Idk if they'd have even lasted weeks without the Coalition...

I think you're overestimating how much people really give a shit about Libya.

Libya has pretty much no grounds for starting a World War.

There's simply not anything that valuable to fight over there.

Not enough of it to warrant a World War.

they have a big number of army deserters among them and more are defecting from gadaffi's side everyday. they could win in the long term after a civil war.

I saw a report that pointed out that the Libyan oil needs far less processing to turn it into fuel, I´m not an expert on the subject so ask my why.

Possible.

But the neighboring countries have their own problems as it is, they're in no state to go to war.

Unless we decide that the best way to liberate Libya and all the oil Gaddafi's holding hostage is to invade Egypt and set up a base of Freedom.

That would make no sense.

If Gaddafi were smart and wanted to stop the revolting, he should set up a rape-policy and let it be publicly known that any rebel captured in battle will be gang-raped repeatedly by his soldiers. It's not like the world doesn't already think he's an insane monster, so he's got nothing to lose by using such measures.

I certainly wouldn't join the resistance.

If anything that would just make the rebels fight harder.
